I go over what is presented in the Gods of Faerun chapter in the Heroes of Faerun sourcebook put out last year. A future episode will touch on elements tied to the divine elsewhere in Heroes and Adventures in Faerun.

Aerdrie Faenya is the Elven goddess of the air, weather and the winged elves (aka the Avariel). Aerdrie and her clergy encourage exploration and treks out in the wider world. They look to foster a strong relationship between avian creatures.
